Firefox was downgraded from 1.0PR to 9.3 for the release candidate and
will remain  at 9.3 for the final release. This was due to instabilit
and unnaceptable bugs that couldnt be ironed out in time. There have
been more detailed discusions in this list in the last few days so if
you searchthe archive you will find out the ins and outs of the
change.
As for putting back 1.0PR - I have seen a few emails asking this in
this list but none giving definate tested answers - if you have the
1.0pr package lying around maybe on CD, you might be able to use dpkg
and force an install - but im not sure on that at all.
